That's what I meant. The "Oceanic Six" is what the flash-forward public calls the returning survivors of flight 815, including Aaron. If 8 survived the crash, two died, and Aaron wasn't born yet, there's someone else who's a member of the surviving "Jack Six," and didn't leave the island. But, since we know that Jack is lying, it doesn't matter who "died." Why didn't the flash-forward public pick up on the fact that Jack is one death short in his story? Aaron counts, because he's one of the six that left the island, there's just an extra fake person in Jack's fake story. I'm interested in the ramifications of Jack's bad math.
